Quick Wear: Lu Ming She Has Many Children and Blessings

By the time this year is over, the day lilies will have become cold.

Especially at this critical moment when the crown prince has passed away and the heir apparent is still undecided, who would be willing to leave the capital easily and give up that supreme position?

The ministers were even more at a loss. If they recommended any prince now, they would be making enemies. Moreover, none of these adult princes were easy to deal with, and those who were not yet adults were not suitable at all.

After much searching, the most suitable candidate is Lu Ming, the powerless and deposed Nineteenth Prince.

Not old enough?

That's not a problem at all. There is a wise suggestion to make Lu Ming a prince and make Xizhou his fief. In this way, the age problem is solved and the difficult problem of Xizhou is thrown away. It is a win-win situation!

Now, no one objected, and the other adult princes spared no effort to promote this matter, for fear that the emperor would not agree and would turn a boomerang and throw them out.

After all, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, it was customary to crown a king after reaching adulthood, and Lu Ming simply advanced the time of crowning the king for a period of time.

Emperor Jian'an had already made up his mind, and he also wanted to test his sons to see whether family and country matters were more important to them, or whether pursuing their own interests was more important.

however……

To his disappointment, when Emperor Jian'an raised this question, the princes present all made excuses to shirk their responsibilities.

They either claimed that they had other important matters to attend to or that they were temporarily unable to get away.

Emperor Jian'an knew very well that these excuses were just excuses for their unwillingness to go to Xizhou.

In comparison, Lu Ming's sincerity is even more precious.

Of course, there was another important reason why Lu Ming was chosen: he was ill and could not pose a threat to the throne.

So, on the fifth day after the prince's death, Emperor Jian'an issued an imperial decree to confer the title of King An on Lu Ming, with his fiefdom including Nanman and Xizhou.

Emperor Jian'an had good intentions towards his son Lu Ming, whom he owed so much.

He temporarily handed the army over to Xiao Chengsi, and also allocated a lot of personnel from the royal palace to Lu Ming.

Lu Ming was penniless and short of men. If it weren't for the help of Emperor Jian'an, he would have had to go on his own.

In order to make up for his debt to Lu Ming, Emperor Jian'an specially selected a group of fiefdom officials from humble backgrounds for him, and prepared double the travel items and objects befitting the status of a prince.

After everything was ready, Lu Ming's trip was scheduled for half a month later.

At this moment, Lu Ming, who was lying on the bed, knew nothing about this. Her wish to be crowned a king and become a fiefdom had come true by accident.

That day, when the Tenth Prince Yunfeng saw Lu Ming, he said in a sarcastic tone, "Brother Ten hasn't congratulated Little Nineteen on being crowned Prince An yet. Now Little Nineteen has finally ascended to the top, leaving all these brothers behind."

Yunfeng's biological mother was also born a palace maid, but one thing that makes her better than Luming is that her mother was a palace maid in front of the emperor. She was very good at pleasing Emperor Jian'an and was made a concubine at an early age. Even when she was old and her favor faded, she would still let Emperor Jian'an visit her from time to time.

Because his mother was favored and he did not receive any special care from the Queen, Yunfeng lived a pretty good life.

Normally, Yunfeng looks down on Luming, who has the same background and a useless mother.

What's the point of being good-looking? You're still not popular.

When the other princes who came with him saw this, no one spoke up for Lu Ming. They all watched coldly. For them, it was good enough that they didn't add insult to injury.

Lu Ming sighed inwardly. Yes, she was the first one to be conferred the title of prince. She was so miserable, but there were still people who couldn't stand it. Her brothers really wanted to make sure she would never get up again.

She still maintained her taciturn image, bowed to Yunfeng, and said sincerely: "Nineteen is grateful for the kindness of all the brothers. Nineteen knows that my talent is mediocre and cannot be compared with your brothers' literary and military strategies. I am very happy to have the opportunity to share my father's worries."

To Yunfeng, these words were the truth. The depression in his heart dissipated a lot, and his impression of Lu Ming also improved a bit.

However, Lu Ming suddenly changed the subject at the end of his words and asked softly, "Brother Shi, do you also want to go to Xizhou? If you really want to go, Nineteen is willing to give up this opportunity."

Yunfeng panicked when he heard this. This was no joke. He knew that if his father was really dissatisfied with Luming, he would probably send him to Xizhou. When he thought about leaving the capital, even the prince was not so attractive.

"Xiao Shijiu, please don't say that." Yunfeng hurried forward to comfort him, and even offered a lot of things just to reassure Luming and not change his mind.

This scene fell into the eyes of others, and their views of Lu Ming also quietly changed.

Is this person really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?

A barely perceptible gloom flashed across the eyes of the fifth prince Yun Yi. He glanced at Lu Ming indifferently, and Lu Ming immediately called him "Fifth Brother" obediently.

Yun Yi is the second son of the Queen, and he has a noble status. Anyone can go to Xizhou, except Yun Yi, whose brother the Crown Prince just died. Others may not be able to go, so he is very calm towards Lu Ming.

He acted like an elder brother and said, "Congratulations, Nineteenth Brother, on becoming a king. Now that you have the status of a prince, you must be careful in what you say and do during your visit to the fiefdom, and remember not to bring shame to our royal family. I will assign five hundred soldiers to you to strengthen your presence."

Lu Ming heard the hidden meaning. Was he mocking her for being weak and vulnerable?

Or is it an implication that the people in the fiefdom are tough and ferocious?

However, regardless of whether the other party was sincere or not, she would take advantage of the opportunity, so she pretended not to understand and responded politely: "Thank you for your generous help, Fifth Brother."

Now that the queen's own son had expressed his support, the other princes also sent gifts one after another.

After staying for a while, he left on the pretext of having something to do.

In the Fifth Prince's palace, the Left Prime Minister Zhao Gao was leisurely sipping tea. Even when he saw the Fifth Prince come in, he did not move. He just raised his eyes to glance at his face and asked calmly, "How is it?"

Yun Yi frowned, "This little Nineteen is becoming more and more difficult to understand. I used to think he was dull and boring, but now I think he is much more insightful."

Zhao Gao smiled disapprovingly, "Anyway, he has been sent away, and it is uncertain whether he can come back alive. With his sickly body, he is destined to have no chance of that position."

Yun Yi confirmed again: "There's nothing fishy about his body, right?"

Zhao Gao shook his head and said with certainty: "The nineteenth prince is useless. Imperial Physician Sun has personally determined that he will only live for ten years. He needs to be taken care of carefully."

Yun Yi breathed a sigh of relief. "In that case, we really don't need to worry too much about him."

After seeing off these princes, Lu Ming began to deal with the servants in the palace.
